Talked about how we could improve the parks and open lots in our community. Went on trips where I helped take pictures, record videos, and helped with the video editing. Worked weekly with my production group and the rest of the Youth Summit Program to plan and prepare for the Youth Summit at the end of the 6 week program.

Jul 2016 - Aug 2016
Working as an Office Clerk/Assistant I filed files and papers and put them in alphabetical order. I also shredded the papers that were no longer needed. And I helped out with my boss whenever she needed something done but was busy and didn't have enough time to do it then I'll help out with that specific job in the office if she told me to.

Community Outreach, Writer

Jul 2015 - Aug 2015
With this summer job we did a lot of community outreach and helped out in the community. We did big community clean up and helped with some construction work. We also made letterheads and our own website to which I and one of my other former coworkers were the writers of. The letter head was basically bringing awareness to issues in the community too and we put the pictures on our website that we had to create.

Jul 2014 - Aug 2014
We took specific issues and problems going on in the community like food deserts, air pollution, etc. And we went out into the community and took pictures of the different issues and at the end of the summer job we had a Photo Voice Gallery. We all made our own boards and took the pictures that we took and put them on the board and typed captions to add under the pictures explaining what was the specific reason why we took that picture and added it to our board.

We all made our own boards and took the pictures that we took and put them on the board and typed captions to add under the pictures explaining what was the specific reason why we took that picture and added it to our board. We each had our own board with our own issue we chose going on in the community and we explained why it was bad and reasons to fix it. For my board I did "Healthy and Unhealthy Foods". It was all about bringing awareness to the specific issue that we chose to get people to think more and try to help prevent the problem.
